676. Codependency, Herbal Healing, + the Gut-Lung Connection with Organic Olivia

In today’s episode, BFFs Krista + Olivia Amitrano, aka Organic Olivia, dive into the intricate web of codependency. Together, they unpack the reasons why we seek external validation and inspire us on a journey towards awareness and breaking the cycle.
Ahead, Olivia opens up about her childhood and the experiences that led her down the addictive path of codependency. She explains how this pattern can affect our health, likening the Chinese Medicine concept of 'dampness' to our emotional and spiritual challenges with codependency.
Krista + Olivia remind us that true independence and self-regulation come from within, and the real work is finding peace and a stable sense of self without relying on others. If you’re struggling to break free from codependency, you’re not alone, and healing is possible.
We also talk about:
The impact of selective childhood attention
The 'devouring mother' dynamic
Balancing the gut-lung microbiome
Enmeshment within family dynamics
Spirituality + cultivating afterlife connections
Setting boundaries + self-awareness
Prayer, gratitude, + intuition

The timing of this in my life..,,Is literally bananas.

[@claudiad.5767]

This part about spending time with yourself, I learnt how to go to a cafe and grab a book, sometimes put earphones on and just spend that quality time with me. Sometimes not even reading a book just listening to music or observe people around, sipping my favorite coffee and just enjoy it to the fullest 😊
